Another great railroad disaster has visit

obliquely. On either side the track is built
high up on an embankment, and meadows
covered with snow and ice surrounded it on
either side The engine and three cars
passed safely over the bridge, but when the
next car touched the abutment there was a
tremor and in an instant the farther end
of the bridge gave way, and, the third car
breaking through, it went down, dragging
the four remaining cars with it into the
street below, a distance of between 30 and
40 feet The bridge was iron girded, about
100 feet long and 40 feet wide. An embank
ment 30 feet high runs for long distanc,
each way from the bridge, on the top OF
